The literature search for the assessment corpus was conducted using search terms provided by the experts and refined in co-operation with the Knowldge and Data task force. The search was conducted using OpenAlex, scripted from R to use the API. Search terms for the following searches were defined: Transformative Change, Nature / Environment and additional search terms for individual chapters and sub-chapters To assess the quality of the corpus, sets of key-papers were selected by the experts to verify if these are in the corpus. These key-papers were selected per chapter / sub-chapter to ensure that the corpus is representative of each chapter.
The following terminology is used in this document:
Individual corpus: The corpus resulting from one search term, e.g. transformative or nature or ChX_Y
Assessment Corpus: The corpus resulting from the search terms transformative AND nature
Chapter corpus: The corpus resulting from transformative AND Nature AND ChX_Y
The following searches are conducted on Title and Abstrat only as the availability of fulltext drops in 2020. OpenAlex did “inherit” fro Microsoft Academic their initial corpus in 2021 which contained a lot of fulltext for searches. After that time, other sources had to be used which did not include fulltext for searches. To eliminate this bias, we linit the search for terms in abstract and title only.

Vision & Case
Topics
OpenAlex assigns topics to each work in a hirarchical manner:
Please see here for more information and here for a complete list of all topics and their corresponding subfields, fields and domains.
Methods
Get and calculate Data from OpenAlex
These data is gathered from OpenAlex directly, not using the downloaded TCA Corpus. The data is used to assess the quality of the TCA Corpus.
The corpus download will be stored in data/pages and the arrow database in data/corpus.
This is not on github!
The corpus can be read by running get_corpus() which o[pens the database so that then it can be fed into a dplyr pipeline. After most dplyr functions, the actual data needs to be collected via collect().
Only then is the actual data read!
Needs to be enabled by setting eval: true in the code block below.
The Sectors definition is based on the subfields assigned to each work by OpenAlex. These were grouped by experts into sectors. See this Google Doc for details.

Here we show the number of hits for the key papers in the different individual corpi. The columns represent the different search terms as defined in Section 2.2.
Each column is a different search term, and each row consists of the key papers of a specific chapter and the author who provided the key papers. The number is the number of key papers occurring in the Individual Corpus.
The red line is the cumulative proportion of publications, the blue line the cumulative proportion of all of the Op[enAlex corpus. Both use the secondeary (red) axis.
Warning in instance$preRenderHook(instance): It seems your data is too big for
client-side DataTables. You may consider server-side processing:
https://rstudio.github.io/DT/server.html
The file strategies_options.txt contains the terms for the different strategies and options.
I will now iterate through all of them and identify the number of hits per individual search term. This can be used as a result in itself in interpreting the importance of each term as well as to shorten the search term to be able to use it together with the TCA search term.

This data is corrected for ifferent research oputput before and after 1992 by dividing by the overall reasarch output in thap perio as reflected on OpenAlex.
